A couple of fun challenges on Splitcoast today! This is for the MIX Challenge (MIX83) & QFTD Challenge (QFTD225). For the MIX, when I’m creating cards, I usually go for COLOR..I love it vibrant, no matter what hue. This particular card, since it’s Halloween uses the warm fire spectrum. And for the new Queen for the Day (& new hostess), I was inspired by THIS card of Jenn’s w/ the cute little witch.

Love this fashion forward witch legs image and the greeting is perfect! I stamped her lovely legs, colored with Copics then added the die cut greeting and a fussy cut witch hat on top. Just a little stickles was added to the stripes on her legs and the hat band. I added a black leftover negative from a die cut border underneath the panel.

For the background, I sponged on yellow & orange ink then stamped the stars at the top. I used a white marker to color in the stars then added stickles on top. The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

I used the fun Kitty & Jack image along with the new Boo die for my Halloween card. This image is a lot of fun to color! I also stamped, colored and fussy cut just the kitty & jack part to pop up on top of the base image. The base image was die cut w/ a large circle and I trimmed of the bottom just below the rock wall & added a larger die cut circle behind it. Boo was die cut out of a dot embossed textured black & stacked on top of 2 more die cut Boo’s for a little depth. The large distressed orange dp was stamped with the new Wood Background image using the rusty hinge ink. I punched one black bat fence and another out of a black Halloween text print..the solid black fence has some yellow highlights added to the top.

The yellow leafy dp on the left was a leftover strip from something else and I used a curved border die on the right edge & added some black faux stitch lines. On the inside, I added some leftover dp and punched bat fence to frame the fun Fraidycat greeting.

The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the Copics I used.

The card below is one I did using some of the new Leaf Pops Negatives & It’s About Time images & a clock die also available at Serendipity Stamps. Just click the picture and it will take you to all the details on this card.

There’s Always One…

Posted on September 14, 2013 12:37 PM by Julie 2 Comments

You know what I’m talking about, lol. One joker in the crowd..one clown in the family..one comedian in the bunch. So I have this one purple pumpkin. I really don’t know what made me color him purple, I just couldn’t stop myself. I was inspired by This picture for today’s Inspiration Challenge (IC406) on Splitcoast and since there are a couple of non-orange pumpkins, I figured my little purple pumpkin would be ok.

The images are from DRS Designs. After stamping and coloring w/ Copics, I die cut the main image and the purple layer behind it. I had some scraps of purple and pale green so I stacked them and added some stars on the pale green. The greeting and a few more stars were added on the card front above the image. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25 and these are the Copics I used to color everything.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
